Project Title:To establish the use of magnetic resonance imaging for assessing the degree of brain damage following hypoxic ischemic insult with or without neuroprotective therapies
Investigator(s):Khong PL, Cheung PT
Department:Diagnostic Radiology
Source(s) of Funding:Other Funding Scheme
Start Date:06/2002

Project Title:Functional and structural assessment of long term therapy-related neurotoxicity of children with cancer
Investigator(s):Khong PL
Department:Diagnostic Radiology
Source(s) of Funding:Queen Mary Hospital (REPOIT)
Start Date:10/2002

Abstract:
(1) To determine the incidence, pattern and correlateds of treatment-reduced neurotoxicity in childhood cancer survivors by cognitive function testing.
